Thank you CTK!” T Levels (equivalent to three A Levels) are a 2year qualification that will give you a head start towards the career you want, thanks to a 45day work placement. T Levels have been designed in partnership with businesses and employers to give the skills and knowledge to succeed in the workplace.

They provide a flexible route to university, apprenticeships and employment across a range of industries. A Level equivalent pathways combine 3 different subjects, allowing you to earn the same UCAS points as 3 A Levels.
